Forget what you know about the North Pole.Beneath the façade of peppermints and ornaments lives the underbelly of a dark secret, which is exposed when a beautiful, young elf is found murdered on Christmas Eve morning. When Ol' Saint Nick himself knocks on his door, Pole private investigator Lionel Treebottom is thrown stockings first into the grizzled case, which threatens to take more than his blood, sweat, and tears.While the elves of The Pole gear up for the big night, Lionel finds himself uncovering more than just a simple murder.Lies, betrayal, and dark secrets hide around every corner- and those at the heart of it all, aren't afraid to kill again to protect the truth of this brutal crime.A new voice in noir has burst onto the scene in Nicholas Rose's 'The Elf Who Never Sleeps'; perfectly merging the Christmas genre with the noir, in what will surely become a new holiday must read.

The Path of the Holy Fool: How the Labyrinth Ignites Our Visionary Powers

The Path of the Holy Fool summons each of us to become a Holy Fool: one who is accountable, stands for equality and social justice, embraces an ecological vision, and encourages community spirit. Lauren Artress, who established the two permanent labyrinths at Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, is a leading force in the Labyrinth Movement. Her new book The Path of the Holy Fool: How the Labyrinth Ignites Our Visionary Powers expands upon her earlier work in Walking a Sacred Path: Rediscovering the Labyrinth as a Spiritual Practice. Through the Parsifal story Artress suggests the labyrinth serves as a Grail that is discovered in the invisible, imaginative, in-between world symbolized by the Grail Castle. Most importantly this book invites readers to explore and reflect upon their own uniquely configured imaginations. It is through the imagination that self-reflection and raw experiences of the Holy occur. Once we navigate our imaginative processes without fear, the labyrinth experience ignites our creativity, heals our wounds and opens our big picture vision that nurtures empathy and gives us eyes to see and ears to hear-even through the sorrows of the pandemic-the call for a life-enhancing future. The labyrinth offers the Holy Fool an unwavering path as we learn to takes risks, create new modalities and find a way to contribute to our evolving world.
